Troubleshooting: Fan board operating sequence
Action System Response
Thermostat calls for heat.
(W terminal is energized.)
Blower control board closes oil primary control T−3T connections.
Ignition system and oil primary control start the furnace. Oil flows as long as oil primary control
senses flame.
Burner motor energized and heat fan on delay timing begins. When timing is complete, the
circulating fan is energized at heat speed and warm air is delivered to the controlled space.
Thermostat ends call for heat.
(W terminal is de−energized.)
Oil primary control is de−energized, terminating the burner cycle.
Heat fan off delay timing begins. When timing is complete, circulating fan is de−energized.
Blower control board returns to standby mode (oil primary control and circulating fan are off).
Burner fails to light. Oil primary control locks out within lockout timing (timing depends on oil primary control).
Burner motor is de−energized.
Established flame fails. Burner motor is de−energized and oil primary control goes into recycle mode.
If the fan off delay is longer than the recycle timing, the heat fan continues to run through the
next trial for ignition.
Limit switch opens. Oil primary control shut off the burner.
Circulating fan is energized immediately.
A15 control board opens oil primary control T−3T connections.
Circulating fan runs as long as limit stays open.
Limit switch closes. If there is a heat demand, A15 control board energizes oil primary control, initiating burner light
off.
